Root Canal Treatment

This is a completely painless procedure, that can be done in one sitting and is done to save tooth that is infected which otherwise may need to be extracted.

Root canal treatment is done to save a tooth that has been badly infected. During the treatment, the pulp is removed from your root canals through a small opening in the crown. Then root canals are cleaned and disinfected. Then, the canals are sealed with an inert material that fills the empty space by removing the pulp. Treatment may take one visit or more. After the inside of your tooth has been treated, the outside will be restored to protect the underlying structures of your tooth and put the tooth back into function. Usually, the tooth is coated with a ceramic crown.
